. >> you are like many other companies facing obama care. as a winner in the new health care system is how i regarded you. >> i completely agree. one of the things you're finding with hospital systems is they need to reduce their cost of care. they have to drive down health care costs but at the same time they have a balancing act where they have to improve patient safety. the products and technology we provide are exactly targeted in that way. we help hospitals be more efficient, help them drive out costs and hem them improve patient safety. so we win in this kind of environment. >> one of the things we've been emphasizing is the idea there are companies within companies and those companies within companies tend to be able to do much better when they've been spun off. how much has it meant to your company that you're off on your own? >> i think it's been absolutely critical. cardinal is a great company and they're a medical distribution company. we are medical technology company. you fundamentally operate those businesses in a different way

the obama administration eliminated that. they've changed the rules and that has allowed many, many people in. a big example i'd like to look at is unmarried people. for some strange reason, unmarried people have fallen much farther below unemployment than married people. they have a lot better access to these programs. >> have the work requirements been removed, casey? is that a problem? the work requirements? is it too easy to go on safety net programs? >> that would be one of a dozen things that has happened. that's one of the factors. >> may i respectfully interject here? i don't know what professor mulligan is talking about. there's still three people looking for every job opening. when you have three people looking for every job opening you want to have safety nets there for people. it's not only fogood for the people but puts money in their pockets to buy things and keeps other people employed. this is economics 101. >> now there are millions of people who can make just as much by not working. that's a bad situation. >

perhaps a slight edge to obama. they show obama with a four or five-point edge in pennsylvania. if that's not the case, then i think all of these close races we can have some degree of confidence will break towards governor romney. i think we could have an early night. if, on the other hand, the polling in new hampshire is exactly what the vote says, then we could have a long night. so i think if governor romney is going to win, i think we'll know pretty quickly. otherwise, it's going to be a long night. >> yeah, but i mean, do you believe the polls? the polls are basically saying that even if it's just a fractional lead, the president is in the lead. so why would you think that these polls would crack toward romney? >> maria, the polls are a point in time. what matters most is the momentum. i think over the last three days -- and it's the eve of the election. there's no need for any spin. the polls have been open for 11 hours. i honestly think when you look at the crowds that governor romney has been getting, when you look at the body language of governor romney and his entoura
